How do I send a scheduled text?

[CatyB0321]

A friend just bought a S4 and was telling me about the "scheduled text" option on his phone but I cannot find that in my settings.  Anyone where I can locate this option?

1. Open "Messaging" app

2. Tap on "Create New", write your message and assign the receiver contact

3. Tap on "Menu button" and choose "Scheduled message"

4. Specify the Time and Date

5. Done

That's the thing...  That option is not in my menu...

For some reason VERIZON has removed this awesome ability on the phone. I have been trying to resolve this issue with them and trying scheduling apps to do the same absolutely sucks. If VERIZON does not return this into the build I will take my 4 phones somewhere else.

I was hoping to find the same thing on this app, but it's not there.  Textra is a free app that allows you to schedule texts.  I use it and love it!
